On supported Linux systems, Red Hat Package Management (RPM) registration creates a virtual package and uses it to make entries to the RPM database. Use the RPM Specification Settings dialog box to configure settings for RPM registration.
To launch the RPM Specification Settings dialog box:
1. | On the Project page, click General Settings. The General Settings view opens. |
2. | Expand the UNIX Tag area of the view. |
3. | In the Enable RPM Registration (Linux Only) setting, select Yes, and then click the ellipsis button (...) in this setting. |
The following settings are available on the RPM Specification Settings dialog box.
Control |
Description |
Name |
Enter the name string from the RPM file name that you plan to use. |
Version |
Enter the version number. This version number is included in the package name. |
Release |
Enter the release number. The release number distinguishes two different packages with the same version number. |
Description |
Enter a brief description of the functionality or application. |
Summary |
Enter a one-line description of the package functionality. |
Copyright |
Enter the copyright notice for the package. On target systems that are running RPM version 4 or later, the Copyright setting is not used. |
License |
Specify the license (GPL, LGPL, commercial) for the package to be installed. On target systems that are running versions of RPM prior to 4, the License setting is ignored. |

Enter the URL that you want the package to reference. |
Distribution |
Enter the name of the distribution to which this package belongs, if any. |
Vendor |

Group |
Specify the group to which the package belongs. This value tells high-level installation programs (such as Red Hat's gnorpm) where to place this particular program in its hierarchical structure. (Find group descriptions in /usr/doc/rpm*/GROUPS.) Or specify groups based on your installed product family. The default value is Applications/System. |
Packager |
Enter the name of the team that created the package. This value is typically an email address or contact information for the installed product. |
